    I’m having a bit more trouble. I’m wanting to put a comment icon inside the feedback string:

    <?php wp_link_pages(); ?>
    <?php comments_popup_link(__('<img src="<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_directory'); ?>/images/comment.gif" alt="comment" style="border: 0; vertical-align: middle;" />  Would you like to be the first to leave a comment?'), __('1 Comment'), __('% Comments')); ?>

    This causes a parse error – I know I can place it outside the php but I have an if and statement that hides the comment # on the post pages, and if I leave the icon outside, the icon shows up but the comment line doesn’t.

    You can see it when I put the image outside here: http://verydad.com/2007/03/19/hello-world/

    Thank you!!

    They work together easily.

    I’ve had a Pro Flickr account forever, so I’m not sure if this is all available on the free version. I think it is.

    Go here: http://www.flickr.com/blogs.gne and add/configure your blog.

    When that’s done, you can blog any public photo you see on Flickr. When you’re looking at a single photo, for example, http://www.flickr.com/photo.gne?id=23754, you’ll see a “Blog This” button above it.

    Note: If you don’t see the “Blog This” button, you probably need to make the photo public (click “edit” next to the privacy indicator under “Additional Information” on the photo’s page).

    Click the “Blog This” button for the photo you want to post. If you’ve set up your blog, you can post immediately by adding a title and body for the post. There’s a link to your blog as well so you can check that the entry looks OK.

    You can set up as many blogs as you like. 🙂

    Here’s an example entry of what it looks like: http://kerflop.com/2006/10/16/flickrness/

    I don’t know if this is what you’re looking for, but I don’t use a plugin. I just customized the “blog this” template in my flickr account so the text would wrap around the image with some nice CSS padding. Then I click the “blog this” button/link above the photo I want to add to a post. A drop down menu asks me which blog, and I select my blog, then type my entry and submit.

    I do have to go into wordpress admin and assign the post to the right category and remove extra line breaks if any, but it’s quick and easy.

    @groovenectar – thanks a million, I was having the same problem on Firefox (mac), Safari, Firefox (PC), and IE (just to test). After following your instructions, all is well.

    yes, it’s still in the oddest order when I switch to a completely different theme and the default theme as well. It’s not even threaded reading top to bottom the comment order is like so:

    6 sixth reply (my response to reader)
    5 fifth reply (reader’s response to me)
    4 fourth reply (my response to reader)
    2 second reply (my response to reader)
    1 first reply (reader)
    3 third reply (reader’s response to me)

    Is that not the weirdest thing ever?

    Solved my own problem. For anyone else needing this solution:

    Plugin: http://rephrase.net/miscellany/05/perpage.phps

    It allows you to set different settings for different pages. I can have 1 entry show up on home page, but I can set 999 (or whatever) to show up when viewing archives or category listings.

    Anyone? I’ve driven myself mad reading everything in the “Loop” documentation. I’m just not skilled enough in php to understand how to accomplish what used to work in the older version.

    Well, I fixed the parse error by changing

    <?php }> to <?php } ?>

    But it still isn’t hiding the posts within that category from the index page. Anyone else? This has to be possible!

    I’m not wanting to hide it from a drop down list.

    I don’t want the posts in a particular category to show up on the main index page.

    Thank you VaamYob, I was able to change the messages by editing the php file directly, thank you again for all of your fast work!

    AndreSC, I use SecureNetShop with my wordpress blog – I create my products on the “pages” and insert the code the cart automatically builds for me. It’s quite flexible and works fabulously, has Quickbooks integration, etc. I got my SecureNetShop (and hosting) through http://www.verycommerce.com

    A couple more things VaamYob,

    Is there a way to make the text unlimited in the “Field Label” area? I need to be able to be really specific in what I’m asking them to fill out for me.

    Are the text areas limited in how much text my clients can enter? If so, I need that extended too.

    We need to be able to assign a width to the text boxes too. (I see I can change the width of the text areas in the css)

    Thanks!

    VaamYob,

    Re: the custom contact form: I think there might be a little bug in the top area options:

    Successs Response:
    Email Subject:
    Missing Required Field Message:

    When I click “update options” it doesn’t seem to save my changes. it defaults back.

    Would it be possible to be able to tweak this to use it to create more than one contact form (different options and fields) for the same website?

    Thanks again, this is really great.
